Before You Take Off
How To Fly A Plane
If you don't feel like reading this entire guide, then I made a video for you, but if not, then feel free to read this.


Okay, so before you take off, there are a couple of things that you need to note.

1) This is going to be hard to do with a trackpad, so if you have a mouse, you should equip it. Since planes require the use of both a keyboard and a mouse, I don't reccomend doing this with a trackpad.

2) Make sure you have a gas can. Yes, you can find a plane with a little bit of gas in it, but it is never going to be enough to get you anywhere. These planes usually spawn with around 4-7 gas in them, and that is literally only enough to get down the runway.

3) You have to fly in first person. At the current state of these planes, they do not work if you are in third person, therefore, before you try taking off, make sure you are in first person.

That is all for the pre-flight tips, so now we can move on.

The Take Off
Now that you are ready to go, you can now take off. Make sure you have a lot of runway space before you try to gain speed, because it takes a lot of speed to lift off the ground

So the first thing that you are going to want to do, is gain speed. So get lined up on a flat open surface, and accelerate by pressing w. Once you are at top speed, you are going to want to slide your mouse towards you while holding w, and you will lift off in the air.

It's that simple....
That's all you have to do for takeoff.

But just make sure to avoid bumps or trees, because if you hit a tree your plane is guarenteed to explode.
In The Air
Now that you are in the air, the fun part begins.

Make sure that you press w the entire time you are in the air, or you will lose speed and fall to your death.

You can use the a key to turn left, and the d key to turn right.
If you want to do a barrell roll, you need to slide your mouse to the left or right.
To go higher, slide your mouse down (or towards you)
To go lower, slide your mouse fowards (away from you)

Be careful because when you use your mouse controls, you lose speed, so make sure not to lose too much speed.
Landing
Landing is simple, and there are two different ways you can land.

Method 1
1) Slowly lower your altitude until you are almost even with the ground (make sure to avoid trees and other objects)
2) Decrease speed by holding down the s key
3) Slowly decrease speed and altitude at the same time, until you come to a stop on the ground

Method 2
1) From wheverever you are in the sky, hold down the s key until you stop moving
2) Level out your plane as you are falling and land on your wheels
This will in fact work
THE END

You forgot to mention the way my friend sarge and people in his group land planes... Point the nose straight up and land as if you are a helicopter. He used this to park us on an oil rig helipad the first time I played on a server so that I could get some loot... This guy is a madman when it comes to planes, one time I even saw him use a jet like it was a submarine and the he flew up from underwater
